The watch displays the current time, date, and weather conditions, as well as other relevant information such as the percentage of battery life remaining, the altitude, and the distance traveled.

    Perfect for runners, I highly suggest this watch to new/beginner and elite runners. It has everything you need and if youre swapping from a Apple Watch dont hesitate! One thing is that the charger cord broke like two weeks later.

    I am a little disappointed. It doesn't do all that the salesman represented to me that it would do. The band was a lot too small.
